Lest anyone think otherwise, the info@oceanpines.org resource, headed by Linda Martin, is an outstanding service initiated by General Manager John Viola.
That said, in my view association members have every right to ask questions of board members and board members have every right to respond. And surely, every board member has the right to ask questions of any OPA employee. Asking questions is not directing staff. As former director Marty Clake wrote, "The board not only has the right to ask questions they have the duty." |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: During this morning's board meeting, OPA board member Larry Perrone resigned his position as OP Treasurer. His resignation letter is below: Sept 27, 2022 From Larry Perrone, Treasurer OPA This letter is to advise you I am resigning my position as Treasurer of OPA effective today. This decision is as a result of your direction to me and the rest of the Board that we are prohibited from answering any financial question raised by community members. In your email dated yesterday you advised the Board that all financial questions should be referred to info@Oceanpines.org. This direction was a consequence of a question directed to me as Treasurer of the Association by a member of the community. In my attempts to request a financial report from the GM and Director of Finance I was advised by the GM to submit the question to Info.oceanpines.org. When the issue was raised with you, you directed me and the Board to submit all inquiries to the website. When I asked for the authority to make such a unilateral decision you advised me and the Board you feel this is the best course of action. In essence, you have defacto appointed the GM the Treasurer of the Association. You do not have the authority to direct the Treasurer or Board not to answer questions from community members. I cannot support this direction which I believe contradicts the duties for the Treasurer or any Board member. Larry Perrone |
